perf: Use tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() to flush any pending tracepoint call
We use synchronize_sched() to ensure a tracepoint won't be called
while/after we release the perf buffers it references.
But the tracepoint API has its own API for that:
tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(). Use it instead as it's
self-explanatory and eases maintainance.
